It’s June 2026, and many people are unaware that the world famous Raja Lion (who had the infamous “match” with Giant Baba in 1987) is alive and well and living in India. He even has a TikTok account. The funniest thing is him sharing the Botchamania video of himself, not understanding the context of what “Botchamania” means

I have zero memory of this, but on a December 1986 episode of WWF Challenge, Kamala put Billy Anderson (trainer of Ultimate Warrior, Sting, Louie Spicolli and others) on a stretcher, and while they were going back to the locker room, Kamala runs into King Kong Bundy (with Bobby Heenan) and they have a stare off. Now I'm totally curious if these two ever wrestled because of this

It's crazy looking back, that there was a whole world outside of WWF TV that 99% of us never knew about. For example, here's Hulk Hogan (who was WWF Champion at the time) challenging IWGP Champion Antonio Inoki for his title on June 13th, 1985 (three months after Wrestlemania, by the way). Even Vince McMahon Jr is there reading the benediction before the match, complete with national anthems. Inoki beat Hogan by countout, by the way

The NWO Japan era was so crazy for the guys involved. A couple of them confirmed to me, they were not only getting paid by WCW, but also taking a second paycheck by New Japan when doing these tours (it was eventually noticed by WCW and stopped). But these looked like crazy times, especially having entire storylines that were never discussed on WCW TV. Here's a promo with NWO Sting, Masa Chono, Buff Bagwell, and Scott Norton from March 1997

Once in Minnesota for Pro Wrestling America, there was an interview being done by Jerry Lynn, talking about an upcoming match against the Lightning Kid. Then, Kid came to confront Lynn but had Shocker and the Golden Idol attack Lynn from behind, and eventually hold Lynn in place where Kid was able to cut his hair. Side story was that Kid actually sold the hair at future events to fans and make a decent amount. Would love to know if any fans of Pro Wrestling America still have that hair from Jerry Lynn 34 years later @BruceFacente Sean Waltman Jerry Lynn

Annual reminder of this commercial. Back in late 1993/early 1994, AAA and "Kelian" released 12 official figures all across Mexico, and they even had commercials with the talent wrestling each other! I look forward to the possibilities when it comes to the future of AAA figures

One heel turn that doesn't get talked about enough is the Barry Windham one that led to him joining the Four Horsemen. Him and Lex Luger are challenging Tully and Arn for the tag titles, and Lex is bloodied and isn't able to tag in to help Barry. Barry gets sick of it and destroys Lex, but afterwards, we have the Midnight Rider going to the heel locker room to confront Windham

As someone who watched religiously from January 1984 to the end of the program, this may have been one of my favorite openings for WWF Superstars through it's existence. The camera angles, the putting on the headset, definitely one I've always remembered. This is from early 1995

Here's my yearly post on this, hoping some expert out there knows more information on this. Here's Rick Rude's entrance at the Fukuoka Dome in May 1994, his final match ever vs Sting (he takes a really bad dive here that messes up his back, and he has to go on Lloyd's of London and never returns in the ring). But my question here is, WHO IS LADY LOVE? She only appeared with Rick in Japan, and never in the States. Anyone know who she is? Any help is appreciated

When the NWO Japan group was formed, it was mostly Masa Chono with a handful of US guys not being used (Michael Wallstreet, Buff, Norton, NWO Sting, etc), but on the huge shows like Osaka Dome, they would actually bring over the top names, like here in 1997, when one of the matches was NWO Japan (Chono, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, with Eric Bischoff!) against Keiji Muto and the Steiner Brothers. Here's the intro only

Antonio Inoki "officially" retired in April 1998, with his final opponent being none other than former UFC champion Don Frye. After the match, Inoki was given one of the greatest sendoffs in history, with everyone from Bob Backlund, Eric Bischoff, Tatsumi Fujinami, Akira Maeda, Seiji Sakaguchi, Riki Choshu, and so many more presenting him with flowers. The final one to give him flowers? His most famous opponent of all time, Muhammed Ali, in one of the most emotional scenes ever in a pro wrestling ring

During the 1999 NJPW Tokyo Dome show, one of the matches was Kensuke Sasaki vs Atsushi Onita. Remember Onita was an FMW star and not New Japan. Because of the amount of times he had told fans he was retiring and came back less than a year later, he "earned" the nickname "Mr. Liar", and while loved by the fans that attended FMW, the fans here at the Tokyo Dome had the opposite reaction. He was nearly 100% hated here, fans wanted to see Sasaki destroy Onita. Here's the epic entrance from Onita (this gives me goosebumps every single time)

There was a time in late 1990/early 1991 in All Japan, after a match with Rusher Kimura, where Abdullah the Butcher "broke character" and grabbed the microphone and wished Kimura, along with Giant Baba, who was in the hospital (believe that was the broken leg) and everyone in the crowd a very Happy New Year

This footage comes from the 2000 "Wrestlemania - All Day Long" event, as Michael Cole interviews Stacey Pauly, who is the Director of New Business Development of Jakks Pacific. She shows off some new figures that are soon to be released, and they also do a segment on how head scans are done, with the Rock!

There's this myth that goes around that all Japanese fans are quiet and polite and only react with clapping at pro wrestling events. Nothing could be further from the truth. Atsushi Onita was so damn hated in early 1999 in New Japan, he brought out the worst in these fans. Here before Masa Chono comes out to the ring for a six man, Onita hits the ring first and this is a sight to see. He is absolutely pelted with cups and everything not tied to the ground. Once Chono hits the ring, it continues with Onita getting the better of him

Going through 1992 All Japan currently, anyways I finally found, to me, the greatest "DEEEE DEEE TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" call I've ever heard, from Akira Fukusawa, during the Kroffat/Furnas vs Kobashi/Kikuchi 5/25/92 match. I get Japan isn't for everyone, but hearing this at 17 made me a fan for life
